THE Henry George school of politi. cians advocate the abolition of custom houses and the collection of revenue by means of direct taxation. Having established this point, the purpose then is to concentrate taxation on real es- tate-not on improvement, but on land. In journals inclined to free trade the argument is often advanced that it would be more economical to the Gov ernment to raise its avenue by direct taxation than by means of "a protective or even a revenue tariff Tho Richmond (Va.) DLfpakch examines these free-tralo arguments and takes issue with them. It ssy3 that if the Federal Government shoIld undertake to raise all its roye- nuc ny direct taxation some of the States would become the abode of psupers, The amount Virginia would bo requi cal to raise would not bs far from s6,VO0,0V0, This would impose adirect tax oi S2 upon each Sl00 of real estate in the State. The town, county and State tax would be Sl,4 additional. Real estate would then be encountered with tax of S3,40 yearly, which is within per cent of the average in- terest on money. The rate of taxation would Do so nearly equal to the total revenue derived from real property that the nominal owner would receive little advantage from its ownership, Money now in the very best of security is wolth but three per cent. United States bonds at per cent are in de- mand. It is true that these bonds are exempt from local tax, but the fact that per cent bonds with twenty years to run are worth Sl, 29 on the dollar is an indication of the value of money. Now a tax of S3,40 on che SlOO when money is only worth about 5 per cent would leave the owner si,Oo year A result Of chis rate of ta.4tioa would bo to destroy tas value Of had This is the result the George caaa os -li' tician loaG l4 oa

IT is to be said in favor of Henry George that if his teachings are false and mischievous, his personal example is not open tosuoh criticism, He works hard and insists upon being well paid for his labor, and the result is that he owns an elegant house in fashionable suburb of New York and fares sumpt- uously in all respects. If his followers would take moro account of what he doo' and less of what he says, they could hardly fail to find it profitable.

The latest novel charity in London.
that town which beats all the rest of the
world in the multiplicity and magnitude
of both its charities and its poverties, is
the Home of Rest for Horses. which has
been recently established in the Victoria
buildings. The scheme is to take the
horses of the poor when they are well
nigh broken down from too much work
and too little food. and give them plenty
of food and nothing to do till they are
ready to start out on their labors once
more.
That is very well for the people, but it
is piteously hard on the horses. About
the most painful object in the world Is
the underfed. overworked city horse, and
the most cheering thought connected
with him is of his death. To systemat-
ically prolcng his misery is criel, and if
it must he done the Home of Rest"
people ought to make arrangements to
themselves kill off in some merciful way
the hopeless horses. They owe them
some atonemsnt for having helped then

The only people in the world who have
fallen into the grievcus error Of striving
to subsist almost entirely upon potatoes
are the Irish. 1t cannot be doubted that
nearly or quite all the ills that trouble
unhappy Ireland are due to the humble
potato. The Irish are the meanest fed
people living in a civilized land of which
we have any knowledge; they are in a
condition of seni-starvation, even when
in their highest prosperity.
Every visitor in Ireland is struck with
the pot bellied'' appearance Of the na-
tlves. men and women. This abnormal
distention of the abdominal walls is due
to the enormous amount of potatoes they
are compelled to consume, in order to
maintain tolerable degree of health.
If this people would quit the cultivation
of the potato, and supply its place with
cereal grains, Ireland would soon become
happy and prosperous Popular

1t is announced that the eminent
scientist, Professor Huxley, of England,
is making inquiries into the phenomena
of spiritualism, with view to elucidate
all there is in it, if anything can be
found. 1t is well that philosophers ard
experimenters in the material turn aside
occasionally to investigate and test what
purports to be immaterial. or so obscurely
connected with the material that thus far
no point of connection has been iiscov-

DISCOVERY OF ALCOHOL.
Tho Distillstion Of strung Liquors . Conn
Paratively Modern Invention.

The Distillstion Of strung Liquors . Conn
paratiSely Medsrn Invention.
Strong liquors are a modern invention.
The ancients knew of nothing more pow
erful than light fermented wines, and
have left warnings enough of the abuse
Of them. Alcohol was not discovered
till the Seventh century. although an
older story exists of monk. Marcus.
who collected and condensed in wool the
steam of heated white wine. and then
pressed out from the wool a balsam which
he applied to the wounds of those who
fell at the siege of Rheims. in the reign Of
Clovis /. He also mixed this balsam
with honey. and produced a cordial which
brought the moribund back to life.
Clovis, however. did not wait for the ap-
proach of death before claiming his share
Of the cordial.
According to DIR. Stanford Chaille. the
distillation of spirits from wine was not
discovered till the Twelfth century, and
spirits did not come into common use as
drink until the Fifteenth, Sixteenth and
Seventeenth centuries. Professor Ar
noldus de NillanOva. in the Fourteenth
century, made panacea of the water of
life. which gave sweet breath, and forti-
fled the memory, besides being good for
sore eyes, the tOnthache and the gout,
and having other wonderful properties.
Distilled spirits came into use in London
in 1850. and had to- be prohibited in 1494.
Michael Savonarola produced q treatise
on making the water of life in the
Fifteenth century, which became a stand
ard authority on the subject. and was
followed by the work of Matthioli de
Sienna. These books gave the start to
brandy making in Italy, whence the trade
extended to France.
About 1920 the Irish usquebaugh be-
gan to acquire reputation in England.
Before 1901 'brand wine" had begun to
be distilled in the low countries from ap-
pies. pears and malt; and in that year an
ordinance was passed at Tournay forbid
ding the sale of the liquor except by
apothecaries, partly because of the dear
ness of corn. and partly because of the
drunkenness which this cheap brand wine
caused. Ito the great prejudice not alone
of homes and lives. but to the extreme
danger of the souls of the drinkers, many
of whom had died without confession"
The art of extracting alcohol from
other substances was gradually discov-
cred. and liquors of various names came
into Use. The trade grew great, and the
present century has seen new develop
ment of it in the general application Of
the art of .'doctoring liquors. Popular

How Oysters Are Wstercd.

Not every lover Of the oyster knows
that the size and plumpness which are so
highly priced in the American bivalve.
and which are so attractive in specimens
on the half shell or in the stew as to lead
the average man to pay considerable
extra price for extra size. are not entirely
natural. and even those who do know
that the majority of the oysters in the
market are artiticially swollen by intro
ducing water into the tissues are not all
aware that the process by which this is
done is closely analogous to that by
which the food in our own bodies is con-
veyed through the walls of the stomach
and other parts of the digestive apparatus
and poured into the blood and lymph to
do its work of nourishment
Psychologists are, believe, agreed that
the passage of the digested food through
the walls of the alimentary canal in man
and other animals is in large part due to
osmose or dialysis. and that the operation
of this physical law is very common
one in the animal body. But the quanti-
tative study of the chemical changes in
volved is generally rendered difficult or
impossible by the very fact of their tax
ing place in living animals where the ap-
plication of chemical analysis is imPossi-
bic. An opportunity is, however. offered
by the oyster, which. since it lives in
water and has a body so constituted as to
readily permit the inflow and outflow of
water and solutions of salt, may be easily
used for experiments. The results of the
experiments have practical as well as
scientific interest, since they confirm the
common explanation of the increase in
bulk of oysters by floating" and show
that it is essentially process of watering
in which the bulk is increased without
any corresponding increase. but rather.
if anything. a loss Of nutritive material.
Professor W. o. Atwater in Popular
Science Monthly.
